About This Opportunity

The SBW Berlin scholarship programme supports social commitment through the development of social projects during the scholarship recipients' studies and includes various types of scholarships. The scholarships are only granted for a limited period, usually for the upcoming semester. Scholarship recipients get involved socially with the start of their studies, with projects ideally being part of non-profit work of organizations located in the home countries of the foreign scholarship recipients or contributing to improving living conditions. During the funding period, SBW Berlin provides all scholarship recipients with a furnished room in one of its shared student apartments. Tuition fees or monthly support are provided depending on the type of scholarship. The program has a total of 20 scholarship places, with scholarships awarded each semester based on available places. Recipients are expected to engage in proactive development of social projects during their studies, with 2 to 8 hours of work per week planned for the social project.
